Equipment and resources

Ordinary shops

Preparation: Compare clothing before buying.

Special attacks

Preparation: Restock reliable timing patterns.

Restore HP

Preparation: Spread recovery across the party.

Revive a brother

Preparation: Restore four-person attack access.

Clothing has separate eligible wearers. A stronger-looking garment may not fit every brother.
Beans and coins fund different shops. Coins buy ordinary stock; Fawful trades badges for beans.
Carry healing for both pairs. Mushrooms restore health, Nuts help multiple brothers, and 1-Up items revive fallen participants.
Attack inventory is part of boss preparation. A long fight consumes Bros. Items.
